Eggless Orange Raspberry Muffins

I’m awed by all the berries I can find here in Sweden! And that too I’ve
come in the right season here, end of spring and summer have been very
pleasurable in terms of weather and the fresh vegetable and fruit produce.
After having loads of strawberries, it was then time for some raspberries! When
we had gone for a long nature walk, we came across many of these raspberry
plants, filled with shiny bright little raspberries! After eating some, I picked
some to take back home too. Here, berries can be picked by anyone anytime
anywhere, unless it is owned by someone and fenced. Isn’t it a good thing?

So back home with the raspberries in the fridge, I wanted to bake
something with it. I thought raspberries and oranges made a
good combination. As always Champa’s Versatile Kitchen has something to offer
whatever you are searching for! This was an orange muffin there, and I added raspberries too. I halved the recipe and got about 8 smaller than normal
muffins. Since it was a cloudy and rainy day, please excuse my bad pics :)

Here’s the recipe…
